If this turns out to be conjecture the fat man needs to be spit roasted for stirring **** up.

Fake news. Typical off-day ****. The obsession continues.

He would be brought in as an assistant coach--Luke ain't going nowhere.

Hmmm adding an assistant, that's already had a head coaching gig?

I mean, we have Shaw, but he's family

We have our longest winning streak in god knows how long and this **** pops up. Talk about impeccable timing.

We're getting familiarity for LeBron. Shaw for George. Walton for ruler of them all! (Really, we won't bring in Lue, and we will not bring that foreign coach they had before him. Definitely not Brown, that leaves Fiz.)

I think more than likely Luke's head is on the chopping block and if LeBron says I want Fizdale, then Luke's gone

Well I firmly disagree. He had what... a season and 19 games as Head Coach experience? He's an assistant coach material. LeBron has experience with him in Miami... as an assistant coach.

Not the best time to bring this up. After the 9th loss in a row maybe, but definitely not now.

And Luke? 1 season and 34 games is an outstanding resume?

And a Head Coach of the Month award. Ball is tailor-made for Walton and vice-versa. They won't break that up. Sorry.

I see a ready made replacement in case it goes pear shaped

FFS do we have to get everyone including coaching staff and players who have the same agent as Lebum, just to get this clown?

Like FFS this happens I'm out and will follow celtics - Doing all this just to please a 33/34 year old bum who'll retire soon anyways, complains to refs on everything, flops, changes teams ... Like really FFS If lakers get him (Lebum) I'll stop following Lakers until he leaves - just really.

OMFG

Edit: and b4 anyone else says this isn't about lebum, it is. Recent article says Lebum has tweeted Fizdale the most ... This is the only reason Lakers would have any interest at all.

Luke has a solid relationship with Magic, Pelinka, and Jeanie. He's not going anywhere. This is just your typical ESPN "multiple sources" dart throwing journalism.

Here...

I'll give you an exclusive that just scrolled across my Razer flip phone.

Multiple execs believe that the Lakers want to get rid of Luol Deng.

Winhorst is some career LeBron nut hanger. Guy holds zero weight as a Lakers insider.

for all the lineup and 4th quarter BS from Walton you should keep him and let him have his own learning curve. LeBron should be more than fine with Walton, especially since he'll have plenty of input with him if does join the Lakers.

Fiz is great, Fiz got done dirty, but F giving Walton a 5 year contract and backing out before year 3 at least.

Kind of blowing smoke at the wrong time. Not really quite sure how much of an Laker insider Windhorst is. Had Ramona Shelburne reported this, then that'd be a different story. Last I read by all accounts, Luke is in a good position.
